Ayala Malls Cinemas Buy 1 Take 1: November 2026 Dates, Participating Cinemas & How to Book
 |
Planning a movie date or family outing? Ayala Malls Cinemas has a treat for you!
Two movie tickets for the price of one? Yes, please!
If you've been putting off a family movie day because of rising ticket prices, here's a good reason to head to the cinema this November.
Ayala Malls Cinemas is bringing back its Red Carpet Mondays promotion, offering Buy 1, Take 1 movie tickets every Monday until November 30, 2026.
Whether you're planning a movie date, catching up with friends, or treating the kids to a family outing, this is one way to enjoy the big screen without spending as much.
But before booking, there are a few things worth knowing. Not all cinemas and movies are included, and you'll need to follow the promo mechanics to get your free ticket.
When Can You Avail of the Buy 1 Take 1 Promo?
There are five Mondays left before Red Carpet Mondays ends:
November 2, 2026
November 9, 2026
November 16, 2026
November 23, 2026
November 30, 2026 — Last day of the promotion
November 30 also happens to be Bonifacio Day, a regular Philippine holiday.
If you've been looking for an affordable activity for the family during the holiday, a movie might be a good option.
Just remember that popular screenings can fill up, especially on holidays.
How Does Ayala Malls Cinemas Buy 1 Take 1 Work?
The mechanics are straightforward.
Purchase one ticket to an eligible movie on a Monday and receive another ticket free for the same movie and screening schedule.
You can purchase tickets at participating Ayala Malls Cinemas ticket booths or book online through Ayala All Access.
How to Book Online
Visit www.ayalaallaccess.com.
Select your preferred Ayala Malls cinema.
Choose an eligible movie and Monday screening schedule.
Select two seats for the same movie and screening.
Add both tickets to your cart.
Check that the Buy 1 Take 1 offer is applied and that you're paying for only one admission ticket before completing your purchase.
If the promotion doesn't appear in your booking summary, double-check the screening type and movie eligibility before paying.
Online purchases may also include a convenience fee.
How Much Can a Family Save?
Let's say regular movie tickets cost ₱350 each.
| Number of Moviegoers | Regular Price | With Buy 1 Take 1 |
|---|---|---|
| 2 people | ₱700 | ₱350 |
| 4 people | ₱1,400 | ₱700 |
That's potentially ₱700 saved for a family of four, assuming two promo pairs are permitted for your chosen screening.
These are illustrative prices, not actual ticket rates. Prices vary by cinema, and online convenience fees may apply.
For larger families, confirm that the promotion is applied to every eligible pair before paying.
Which Ayala Malls Cinemas Are Participating?
The promotion is available at participating Ayala Malls Cinemas branches, except Bonifacio High Street Cinemas.
For families living in Quezon City, these are some locations worth checking:
TriNoma — North Avenue corner EDSA, Quezon City
UP Town Center — Katipunan Avenue, Quezon City
Ayala Malls Vertis North — North Avenue, Quezon City
Ayala Malls Cloverleaf — A. Bonifacio Avenue, Quezon City
Ayala Malls Fairview Terraces — Quirino Highway, Novaliches, Quezon City
Other Ayala Malls Cinemas locations around Metro Manila include Glorietta, Greenbelt, Ayala Malls Manila Bay, Ayala Malls Feliz, and Market! Market!
Before heading out, check the schedules and promo eligibility for your preferred branch through Ayala All Access.
What's Not Included in Red Carpet Mondays?
Not every cinema experience qualifies for the Buy 1 Take 1 offer.
The published promotion excludes:
Cinema locations and formats:
Bonifacio High Street Cinemas
4DX
A-Luxe
MyCinema
Additional restrictions or movie exclusions may apply, so always verify the promotion before booking.
Can Senior Citizens and PWDs Use the Promo?
Red Carpet Mondays cannot be combined with Senior Citizen or PWD discounts.
If you're bringing grandparents or other eligible family members, compare the regular ticket discount with the Buy 1 Take 1 offer to determine which works out better.
Senior Citizen and PWD discounted tickets must currently be arranged at the cinema ticket booth rather than through Ayala All Access.
What Movies Can Families Watch This November?
Movie schedules change from week to week, and not every movie will be showing at every Ayala Malls branch.
For families with younger children, look for age-appropriate animated movies or family adventures.
For older children and teenagers, there may be additional choices, depending on the week's releases.
Before buying tickets, check the movie's MTRCB classification, especially if you're bringing younger kids.
You can browse available movies, screening schedules, and cinema locations through Ayala All Access.
A Few Tips Before Your Family Movie Day
1. Choose an earlier screening if you're bringing younger children. Afternoon movies may be easier to fit around meals and bedtime.
2. Check whether your chosen movie qualifies. A film appearing on the cinema schedule doesn't automatically mean it's included in the promotion.
3. Book seats together. If you're watching as a family of four, check that adjacent seats are available before completing your purchase.
4. Compare online and ticket-booth prices. Online booking is convenient, but remember to factor in any convenience fees.
5. Check the cinema's ticket policy for small children. Don't assume toddlers are admitted free. Ask your chosen branch about age, height, and ticket requirements.
6. Make a day of it. Pair your movie with a family meal, some window-shopping, or a visit to one of the mall's free play areas.

Is It Worth It?
If you're already planning to watch a movie this month, Red Carpet Mondays is worth considering.
For a couple, it means paying for just one eligible movie ticket instead of two. For a family of four, the savings could be even greater.
And with November 30 falling on a holiday, there's one more opportunity to plan an affordable movie outing before December arrives.
Just make sure to check the participating movies, cinema format, and final ticket price before completing your booking.
